*A Quick note on kids in the gym. While we understand the need for kids to come with some of you to the gym for you to get your workout in, please work with us in keeping your children off the gym floor at all times. They are more than welcome to come in with you, but we request that they stay on the carpeted areas at all times (before and after class times). As we are expanding our membership, this becomes even more important for the safety of everyone, especially for the kids as large foreign objects have been known to come crashing down from the sky. Thank you, and we really appreciate the cooperation in making CCCF a safe and enjoyable place for everyone. Keep up the hard work!

In teams of three, complete as many rounds and reps as possible in 24 minutes of:
30 Kettlebell Swings (or Air Squats)
Burpees x 20 reps
Weighted (KBs or Plates overhead) Alternating Reverse Lunges x 10 reps each leg

Teams must rotate stations as a team, with only one team member working at each station. You cannot begin working on your next task until all team members have completed their station tasks and are ready to move one. Thus, you must work as a team, communicate effectively and motivate your teammates to keep moving throughout the 24 minutes.

Back Squat 5x3

then

Four rounds for time of:
Over Head Walking Lunges x 20 steps
Toes to Bar x 15 reps

Warm up properly and then load accordingly. These should be 3 heavy reps. It should feel around the 4th set, that the second rep is very difficult. You should need to take at least 2 minutes between sets, if not then you need to increase the load. Do not be afraid to fail on the lift. That is what makes us stronger. This however does not mean that you do whatever it takes to complete the lift. Your mechanics are most important. the coaches will be walking around to watch form, but also have your partner help you out and encourage. These should be very taxing on the nervous system, but done correctly, the back squat has astronomical benefits to overall conditioning.
